Recenzje

"Creepy space suits, revolutionary werewolves, dance parties you should NOT have in a cemetery, and fox hunts gone very wrong-this book serves up fifteen different flavors of horror in fresh, spine-tingling, frightful tales. But the best part? No matter how harrowing and creepy, through her own genius, wit, the ancestors, proper moisturizer, and whole lotta 'Nope!'-THE BLACK GIRL SURVIVES IN THIS ONE. Each and every time. And I'm here for it." -P. Djèlí Clark, author of Ring Shout

"Full of brilliant and bone-chilling stories that kept my eyes glued to the pages. The Black Girl Survives In This One is the anthology I've been waiting for." -Alexis Henderson, author of The Year of the Witching

"Bucking old and tired tropes, here is an anthology of short horror stories for young adults all starring Black girls, and spoiler alert, they all survive! But just because we know that they live to see the next day doesn't mean there is any lack of suspense or terror." -BookRiot.com
